Abstract
A cw CO chemical laser has been operated with CS produced externally by a microwave discharge. Use of CS as a laser fuel produces large increases in output power, as compared with CS2, by a factor of 5.6 or more. The reasons for this power enhancement and the details of the experiment are discussed in this letter.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
